The Edible Essay: Writing a Culinary Memoir w/ Recipes with Jennifer Cognard-Black
Apr 29 all-day
via zoom

A recipe is a slice of history—an archival document that offers information about the author-cook’s complex identity. In this workshop, participants will work with Jennifer Cognard-Black to consider the recipe as a form of storytelling and meaning-making all its own—and will also have the opportunity to excavate one of their own recipes to write a culinary memoir or Edible Essay. Bringing in a favorite, cherished, despised, secret, and/or “lost” recipe from their own family or background, participants will discuss what aspects of individual and collective memory are contained within these recipes. Participants will then have the opportunity to engage in writing prompts that will launch their own Edible Essay.

*All events are open to everyone – we have a suggested $5 – $20 pay what you can option, as well as free
